Mid-terms: two down, two to go! It's not just a question of do you know the material, but rather, can you handle three hour exams, day in and day out? Can you be disciplined enough to study for them in the time you have? The professors provide the 2002 and 2003 mid-terms. They're good practice and they give you a very definite feel for how well you know the material (read between the lines). It's good to take the mid-terms seriously -- just not too seriously.
A friend of mine is one of the organizers of the Open Source Business Conference. He's looking for interesting topics, speakers, and companies for the 2005 conference. If you know of any, please contact me.
We tried two new restaurants in the last week.
Fuki Sushi had great fish -- fresh and a good assortment. But it's a huge place. We're still trying to find a sushi place that has great sushi and is a small, intimate place we might want to go to a few times a month.
Cafe Riace was just OK. It was somewhat romantic sitting outside (you don't get those outdoor heaters in Seattle), but the main courses and the wine were OK at best. We would go back just for dessert, however: the tiramisu was amazing.

do you have any comments about your sister blog, standfordmba, being censored by the administration? it might be good for the school image to speak a bit about the culture and atmosphere there, so that everyone doesn't think of it as a stalnist compound.
I don't think StanfordMBA was censored AT ALL by the administration. In fact, I'm sure that he/she wasn't. I'm pretty sure that that person, who was trying to be honest about his/her experiences here, wound up getting more attention from classmates than he/she expected and didn't feel that he/she could continue to be quite as honest when anonymity was somewhat compromised.
